Most likely taking down the Christmas lights on the castle. Don't know how long.

Can't think of a time I have been there when there wasn't a crane, I've become to kind of like the thing.

True. The crane is in so many of our MK photos it's like a member of the family.

The crane is there about 9months out of the year anymore.

Actually, the crane was up until mid-March last year. It was supposed to be gone 2/21, but that date got pushed back.

We've had it the last two March trips -- hoping that it will be gone this March.

I would love for the crane to be gone by the end of Feb.

Taking off lights and painting castle. They were busy painting Saturday. It basically only went down during fireworks.

Doesn't the crane have it's own facebook group or twitter account or something like that? I thought I read about it somewhere.

It was up all last week and most of the day during the day. The bucket always seemed to be in the same spot near the spire on the backside. We saw this from our lake view at the Poly...it wasn't up on rainy days however.

If this is true that is great news! Thank you.

Good. I was hoping they would take it down before we get there in couple weeks.

 

[Tondee]

I thought it was part of the castle.
